!Tropes Pertaining To Me:* AnimalMotifs: I tend to use American badgers as a mascot/symbol.* BerserkButton: People hating on CGI animation, especially claiming that it has "no soul" compared to traditional.* BigEater* BigFun: I joke that, in our group, I'm the obligatory fat-and-sassy-chick. No trope for that yet, though.* BrainyBrunette* [[FriendToAllLivingThings Friend To Everything That Is Not A Wolf Spider]]* LargeHam: Granted, I don't ''yell'', and I can control myself, but the ham comes out when I'm around friends.* MessyHair* NerdGlasses* MilkingTheGiantCow* NightmareFetishist: Like I said, I ''love'' researching and learning about the paranormal, as well as true crime shows, horror movies (though [[{{Squick}} not]] gore or medical/body horror, I'm cool with bloody ones, though), and "creepy" animals like snakes and rats.* NoSenseOfDirection* NotAMorningPerson* {{Sidekick}}: To my best friend.* SweetTooth* WeaselMascot: My ferrets, [[CuteBruiser Boo]], [[{{Keet}} Romeo]], and [[TheBigGuy Samson]].

I go by Melesmelda around the internet; I'm 18 and I live in Florida. I'm a huge geek, and long-time lover of animation (I'm currently studying to become an animator) and art. I also love the paranormal (cryptozoology in particular), WorldOfWarcraft, things I'm too old for (Pokemon battle, anyone?), horror movies, well-written fantasy/sci-fi ({{Dune}}, {{Temeraire}}, and ASongOfIceAndFire being my favorites), and cooking. I'm also a twin; my sister is [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tropers/Keeyla Keeyla]].

* NightmareFetishist: Like I said, I ''love'' researching and learning about the paranormal, as well as true crime shows (mostly for the forensics), horror movies (though [[{{Squick}} not]] gore or medical/body horror, I'm cool with bloody ones, though), "creepy" animals like snakes and rats... and some [[FetishFuel other literal stuff]].

!My Troper Tales (With 90% less bragging and ego-stroking!)* AudioErotica: Scott [=McNeil=]. Good lord. He’s the main reason I like [[{{Gundam 00}} Ali]] as much. Also, [[{{Savatage}} Jon Olivia]]’s voice, while not beautiful, per se, has this absolutely sinister, gleeful tone to it in some songs that give it so much character, and I love that. Also from Savatage is Zachary Stevens, and damn near everyone in TransSiberianOrchestra, regardless of gender.* AwesomenessWithdrawal: After watching Code Geass R2 as it came out, with the rest of the Internet. I didn’t watch any new anime for about a year and a half afterwards, though {{Gundam 00}} and helped fulfill my hot-boys-‘n’-mechs quota and ease me back into anime fandom. Currently I'm watching ''StarDriver'' to try and relive the experience, complete with over-the-top camp.* CatchPhrase: “And I’m like, what ''is'' this?!” I also know a girl whose catch phrase is “Good time(s)”.* CrackingUp: All day, e’ery day. Only my fingers, toes, and upper back, though.* GuiltyPleasure: Neopets. I’m {{tsundere}} for it.* HypeBacklash: Shut up. About. TheDarkKnight. It was a good movie, but the constant praise by obsessive fans has made me hate hearing about it anywhere. [[TropeOverdosed Which isn’t easy for me here...]] As well as OrderOfTheStick (I abhor the simplistic art style and I, despite being a D&D nerd, don’t think it’s funny, same goes for {{xkcd}}) and, while I’m actually a big fan, NeonGenesisEvangelion. It does not have to be on EVERY. DAMN. PAGE. And no, I didn’t find it depressing nor very mind-screwy.* MostWonderfulSound: [[YourMileageMayVary Your mileage will definitely vary]], but I absolutely love the sound of knuckles/back/neck popping. Most satisfying sound ''ever''.* {{Narm}}: A girl in my Creative Writing class wrote a story about a girl's experience in the afterlife. It was a serious, dark, and dramatic story, and it was going well until we learned that the main character had gotten there by hanging herself... from a ''ceiling fan''.* NoodleIncident: “Saturday Night”.* SheIsAllGrownUp: Boy I knew moved away in 7th grade. Came back in 10th. [[LongHairedPrettyBoy Oh my]]. Too bad he TookALevelInJerkass at the same time.* TVTropesAsAGatewayDrug: Let’s see... ASongOfIceAndFire, ClanOfTheCaveBear, {{Oglaf}}, {{Conqueror}}, {{Gantz}}, a lot of good stuff. I have a folder in my bookmarks called “Things I Need to Check Out”, which is mostly TV Tropes pages.* WackyHomeroom: My senior-year Creative Writing class. We had a [[CanadaEh very Canadian]] teacher, [[ThoseTwoGuys a]] [[AttentionWhore multi-]][[TheSilentBob grade-]][[PluckyComicRelief leveled]], [[LovableLibby varied]] [[TheStoner class]] [[TheDitz full]] [[SingleMindedTwins of]] [[DeadpanSnarker character]], a host of in-jokes (including hair weave, tipping your waiters, our teacher's supposed drug-ridden driving habits, RapeIsTheNewDeadParents / SuicideAsComedy, a particular student's habit of sweetly complementing everything someone wrote, and farms of ginger babies), and at one point, a fanfic written about us (someone's assignment; it caricatured the class perfectly).

I discovered TV Tropes in mid-2008 and haven't looked back since; I consider this place an invaluable tool for literary criticism, writing, and wasting time. It's [[TVTropesWillRuinYourVocabulary ruined my vocabulary]].
